ELSYS researchers are nationally recognized for their contributions to national defense in countermeasures technique development, employing an end-to-end approach to countermeasures development. ELSYS also provides operational embedded software and has designed hardware modifications for several production systems that are fielded on military aircraft world-wide.

ELSYS human systems research includes support to key U.S. government agencies in the areas of aircraft and ship crew station design, traffic management and first responder actions. These researchers also run the Georgia consultation program and provide training as an OSHA Training Institute Education Center for the U.S. Department of Labor.

ELSYS performs commercial product evaluations to determine their accessibility to the widest user community. ELSYS sensor performance analysis includes:

• Intercept receiver analysis
• Advanced radar concepts analysis
• Electronic countermeasures analysis
• Specialized instrumentation,
• Real-time simulation

Over the past decade, ELSYS has supported flight tests covering all aspects of airborne testing.
